Internship Growth Focus
Hands-On Experience

Mentorship That Matters
Discover the life of compassion, care, joy, and love that comes with a foundation for your calling through the mentorship programs at Heritage Church. You’ll discover ways to sharpen your gifts, grow your talents, and find yourself well past your comfort zone through our mentorship programs.
Culture & Philosophy
Through our culture & philosophy teachings, you’ll discover the beauty and purpose of our calling as a church. With teachings and resources led by multiple pastors, interns find a new connection with Heritage and their own ministry philosophy.
Create Community
Through our compassionate community outreach program, you will build genuine community in Christ within the church. Our mentorship programs are built to guide you into a deeper relationship with Jesus through small group Bible study and community interaction.
Spiritual Growth
By taking the time to pause, slow down, and remove distractions in your daily life, you’ll discover a space to connect more deeply with the Word and grow closer with God. As you interact and engage with other interns, you’ll learn to appreciate the time of spiritual growth during your Heritage Church internship.
Leadership + Bible Training
Develop intentional biblical study and prayer practices through theological study during your internship. Also learn what it takes to be a leader in your faith, community, and career with high-level training from Heritage Church staff.
